Targeting of reactive isolevuglandins in mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation. [PDF]
Inflammation is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. Despite use of multiple drugs, both chronic and acute inflammation still represent major health burdens.

Evidence for a Disequilibrium pH in the Proximal Tubule of Rat Kidney.
Reabsorption of filtered HCO3- by the kidney is thought to be mediated by secretion of cellular H+(1,2), resulting in the following intratubular reaction:Since dehydration of H2CO3 is not instantaneous, excess H2CO3 would accumulate in tubular fluid and would not be in equilibrium with plasma CO2.

Diabetic nephropathy, autophagy and proximal tubule protein endocytic transport: A potentially harmful relationship [PDF]
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the most frequent cause of chronic renal failure. Until now, the pathophysiological mechanisms that determine its development and progression have not yet been elucidated.

Stem cells and fluid flow drive cyst formation in an invertebrate excretory organ.
Cystic kidney diseases (CKDs) affect millions of people worldwide. The defining pathological features are fluid-filled cysts developing from nephric tubules due to defective flow sensing, cell proliferation and differentiation.

A single-nucleus RNA-sequencing pipeline to decipher the molecular anatomy and pathophysiology of human kidneys [PDF]
Defining cellular and molecular identities within the kidney is necessary to understand its organization and function in health and disease. Here we demonstrate a reproducible method with minimal artifacts for single-nucleus Droplet-based RNA sequencing (

Can formaldehyde exposure induce histopathologic and morphometric changes on rat kidney? [¿la exposición al formaldehído puede inducir cambios histopatológicos y morfométricos sobre el riñón de rata?] [PDF]
Formaldehyde is used traditionally for fixing the cadaver, and vaporized during dissection and practical studying on cadaver. This study was designed to determine the histopathologic and morphometric changes of rat kidney while all of the experiments ...

Ultrastructure of the reproductive system of the black swamp snake (\u3ci\u3eSeminatrix pygaea\u3c/i\u3e). Part III. The sexual segment of the male kidney. [PDF]
In mature male snakes and lizards, a distal portion of the nephron is hypertrophied in relation to its appearance in females and immature males. This sexual segment of the male kidney apparently provides seminal fluid that is mixed with sperm and ...
